Dear Parents,

As we begin the school year I would like to invite you and your children to join us in making this year a huge success. We encourage you and your children to read and discuss the Student Code of Conduct. Our staff is looking forward to collaborating with you so that all measures are in place for student achievement.

The Student Code of Conduct is designed to provide you with the expectations for student behavior in all of our schools. There is important information in the Code of Conduct which also explains the role you play in helping us ensure your student reaches his/her fullest potential.

Please read each page carefully and review all material with your children before signing the Acknowledgement Form, which can be found in the first day of school packet. This form must be returned to your child’s school with both the parent and student signature.

We recognize that parental involvement is one of the key factors in a child’s education and we are grateful for the chance to work collaboratively with you. Thank you for entrusting your children to Hillsborough County Public Schools and thank you for all you do to help us Prepare Students for Life.

Sincerely,

Jeff EakinsSuperintendent
